Review of Primary Arms cheap red dot Range report on Primary Arms Red Dot sight.
I sighted the optic in at 20 yards at first. Then moved to 50 and finished. I had the optic closer to the rear of the gun but it was causing malfunctions because the brass would hit the optic and fail to eject so I moved it forward.
The red dot held is zero. The dot covered the entire 3.5 inch square post it note at 50 yards so I don’t think it is a true 4 moa dot. But it still works for what I got it for. I shot a 30 round department qualification with just the red dot and then again with just the ACOG. The sight is handling the pounding recoil of the AR10 .308 recoil well so far. I will keep you updated. I liked the adjustments as they were positive clicks and sighting in was fairly easy unlike other cheap red dots.

Is the Primary Arms actually the same RD as the Sig/iTac? From those pics they look the same. It's going to be a while before i can afford an Aimpoint, but I'm thinking of picking up a cheap knock-off for now.

I honestly have no idea who makes their sights for them They are on sale right now for 70 bucks and I figured I could not go wrong.

I've been looking closely at some pics, and I'm about 99% sure they are the same. The stats are the same on them too. In which case you definitely got a good deal. The Sig branded sights are going from about $175-$250, and the iTacs are around $150. I think you talked me into buying one. :grin:

Standing up to that recoil is a good testament to the optics quality. thanks for posting up your results!
